Help me find this book list

Some time ago, I found a list of books that had been voted by some group of academics (maybe social scientists? anthropologists?) as the most important in their field. I think several Claude Levi-Strauss books were on the list, including Tristes Tropiques. I also think Pierre Bourdieu's Distinction and Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions were.
Maybe the Allegra Lab list "The 30 Essential Books in Anthropology #classic" (expanded in "70 (or So) Essential Books in Anthropology - Allegra's Readers' Choices") or Ryan Sayre's list of "100 Influential Ethnographies and Anthropological Texts."

This does not include any of the specific books you mention, but does include a different Pierre Bourdieu book.
